The award was presented by Harry Belafonte, who mentioned that Bennett actually introduced him to Winehouse’s music.

Amy Winehouse recorded a duet with Bennett for the award winning single “Body & Soul” off his album Duets II. That was Winehouse’s last musical recording before her accidental death due to alcohol poisoning in 2011, at the age of 27.

During the tribute, Bennett debuted a never-before-seen video for the single.

Jennifer Hudson, who also performed at the event, was given a standing ovation for her performance which included her signature Dreamgirls anthem “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” and “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.”

Winehouse’s parents, brother and her long time producers Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi were also among the attendees.
